Preparation method of water-collecting and moisture-conducting fabric
By brushing different concentrations of hydrophilic polymer onto the base fabric multiple times and combining it with a hydrophobic agent treatment, a stable hydrophilic-hydrophobic gradient is formed, which solves the problem of one-way moisture-wicking fabrics affecting breathability and achieves efficient moisture absorption and wicking as well as breathability of the water-retaining moisture-wicking fabric.

AI Technical Summary
While improving wearing comfort, the unidirectional moisture-wicking fabrics in existing sportswear can affect the feel and breathability of the base fabric.
Different concentrations of hydrophilic polymer are brushed onto one side of the base fabric multiple times to form a hydrophilic-hydrophobic gradient. By controlling the penetration depth and distribution of the hydrophilic polymer and combining it with hydrophobic agent treatment, a stable hydrophilic-hydrophobic gradient structure is formed. Finally, the hydrophilic polymer is removed to maintain air permeability.
It achieves excellent one-way moisture absorption and breathability of the water-wicking fabric, maintains the comfort and breathability of the base fabric, and improves the efficiency of sweat wicking.
